<p>3.2 UW gpa. (low i know) idk what my UCF weighted gpa would be..
OOS as well!
Took advanced/honors classes freshman and sophomore year
then took IB classes junior and (going to be) senior year. Plus I am in the IB program
and my school has AP and IB classes together. So im taking the AP exams even though on my school transcript it only says IB classes.</p>
<p>SAT score: 1750 first time. (didnt have time to study at all so im retaking it.. hope to get much higher)</p>
<p>I also have a lot of extra curricular activities
piano (12yrs), dance(10yrs),swimming (3yrs), volunteer work (200+)
and some more.</p>
<p>You’re a well rounded student which is something that UCF admissions counselors look for. I would suggest that your Senior schedule strength be vert strong and your GPA move a little bit higher. Other than those things I would say that you are a very good prospect that has an excellent chance of getting in!</p>
<p>my gpa is 3.58 W (LOW, SUPER LOW I KNOW!!) totally misguessed it.
but its a 3.58 going by the
4.0 - A
3.7 - A-
3.3 - B+
3.0 - B
2.7 - B-
2.3 - C+ etc…
and of course the added +.5 honors and +1 AP/IB added in there.
I thought it would be higher since i am in IB but ive only been in IB this year (junior year) so it didnt really boost up my gpa that much…</p>
<p>correct me if i am wrong with this gpa scale.
thank you!</p>
<p>The scale it different it’s the basic. </p>
<p>A 4.0
B 3.9
C 3.8
D 3.7
F 3.6</p>
<p>only plus .5 for honors and plus 1.0 for ap classes</p>
<p>and only main Core classes. No extra curricular classes.</p>
<p>^ that scale would be nice.</p>
<p>i dont think thats their scale…
that would be ridiculous</p>
<p>and yes i know its only core classes
and i already stated the fact that i know about the +.5 and +1</p>
<p>Sadly, UCF look at GPA and test scores more than anything. I have a feeling they might defer your until you send in semester grades, but everything else looks fine.</p>
<p>And LOL @ wicked’s GPA scale. I would be content with receiving straight F’s and getting a 3.6 GPA if that was the case.</p>
<p>Haha guess I am failing high school then?! This is the scale:
A- 4.0
B- 3.0
C- 2.0
D- 1.0
F- 0</p>
<p>Add .5 for honors and 1 for AP</p>
<p>are you sure an A- is a 4.0?</p>
<p>Those are just dashes not minuses but I don’t think plus or minuses have any weight on your gpa. That’s what it says on my report card every marking period.</p>
<p>do you know for sure that UCF only calculates by A, B,C, no + or -?</p>
<p>If the 4/3/2/1 scale is correct then my W gpa would be a 3.7 gpa</p>
<p>They don’t get to see +s or -s on your transcripts Vodka, simply a single letter grade, no numbers. They only do certain classes though.</p>
<p>But doesnt my school send in the transcript so they see the + and -
or does UCF change it to solid letter grades and then convert them to 4/3/2 etc?
because if they do then it helps my gpa! =) haha</p>
<p>Does your school keep the +s, -s on the transcript? I guess I didn’t know places did that. On my transcripts, it only says the class, code, year, number of credits, and a grade, no +s or -s D:</p>
<p>I think so… but what does UCF do with them if they see the + and -? </p>
<p>just give it a solid letter grade.</p>
<p>"How is my high school GPA calculated?</p>
<pre><code>Your GPA is recalculated based on the academic core courses (including English, math, science, social studies and foreign language). UCF uses a 4.0 grading scale, and also awards additional quality points for any weighted courses within the academic core. Courses marked as Pre-AP, Pre-IB, Pre-AICE, and Honors are given an additional .5 quality point.
Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), Advanced International Certification of Education (AICE), and Dual Enrollment (DE) courses are given 1 additional quality point.

<p>That’s the only info they provide online. It’s not specific, but I doubt they’d do +s or -s. Not every school provides them, so it would be really unfair if they took them in to consideration. I know my school doesn’t.</p>
